On the Thursday No Filter show: Joe begins with a topic that is interesting, and brought up originally by AJ Johnson on Wednesday’s Bleacher Brothers show on No Filter. Joe understands AJ’s point. No two people have the same musical tastes. Joe thinks “Dancing on My Own” is a catchy song and will unite a fan base, but sometimes reading the lyrics can give a different perspective or purpose. Someone tried to bring an “emotional support” alligator to Citizens Bank Park on Wednesday night. Joe thin...
Be warned, there’s even more tangents than usual on the show, but that’s why you should join me on NoFilter.net Tuesdays and Thursdays at 9:15 pm ET! On the show tonight: Joe begins with some sad news. Brooks Robinson passed away today at the age of 86. Joe reviews his career and highlights and some fact you may not have known. (Tangent with the Phillies clinching the wild card with their 10th inning walk off) Joe then talks about his weekend. He wagered on the Pennsylvania Derby card at Parx Ra...
From the Friday afternoon Philly Guy Speaks Show on NoFilter.net. Joe looks at the final 5 races on the card (weather permitting) Race 10: Parx Dirt Mile Race 11: Gallant Bob Race 12: Cotillion Race 13: Pennsylvania Derby Race 14: Allowance Race
On the Thursday show: Trevon Diggs tears his ACL in practice on Thursday. Joe thinks we’ll see how good the Cowboys’ depth in the secondary will be. Amazon last week caught a “beef” between A.J. Brown and Jalen Hurts. Joe is somewhat worried about this because we saw this back in 2005 with Terrell Owens. But Joe also mentioned that Brown isn’t looking for a new contract, so that ease some of the worries over what both Eagles say is a non-issue. Minkah Fitzpatrick was the Steeler that hit Nick Ch...
On the Tuesday NoFilter.net show: Birthday recap Nick Chubb injury update Patriots fan killed in stands during SNF game Prime Time condemns death threats to CSU player Tampa Bay getting new stadium…MLB expansion near? Random talk with Donn_Wann and PlayActionReal in the NoFilter chat room Update for this week’s shows
On a Friday edition of the TPGS: Joe begins with some Eagles talk. Eagles go 2-0 after a Thursday night win in Philly, and Joe is feeling slightly better after the frustrating win in Foxboro on Sunday. Then Joe talks about Aaron Rodgers’ season ending injury. Joe thinks it could be a blessing in disguise that Rodgers tore his left Achillies since his right leg is the leg he would push off of to throw. But Joe thinks the NFLPA wouldn’t be making as big a deal about every stadium having an all gra...
On the show tonight, Joe begins with his look back at 9/11, albeit a day late. He talks about what he remembers leading up to a day that we’ll never forget of this day that rivals previous generations’ Pearl Harbor or JFK assassination moments, as we know where we were when the news broke when all hell broke loose. Joe also talks about what we should do as Americans to remember those that died on that horrible day in American history. Joe tries to lighten up the move by going to his specialty, w...
Quick podcast here as Joe gives some selections for week 1 of the NFL season as the season officially kicks off!
Joe’s got a football themed show on this opening night of the NFL season. First, Joe Burrow got paid. He signs a 5 year, $275 million contract. He was next in line and is the highest played player in the NFL…for now. Joe steered away from football as news broke before the show that protesters caused a delay in a women’s singles semifinal match. Joe thinks protesting is okay to an extent, but not disrupting big matches like this. Back to football, Joe mentions some odds and trends at the sportsbo...
On tonight’s show, Joe begins by reflecting on the trifecta of musical acts who passed away this weekend. Gary Wright passed away last night, Steve Harwell of Smash Mouth passed on Sunday, and the one that started the trifecta, legend Jimmy Buffett died late Friday night. Then Joe talks about the breaking news of Travis Kelce’s knee injury. Joe has a feeling whoever takes over will have an opportunity to shine on opening night. Julio Urias was arrested on a domestic violence charge late Sunday n...
On this Labor Day edition of the TPGS: Joe opens up the show with remembering the life of Jimmy Buffett, who died Friday night at76. Joe even tells a story of how he was sticking out like a sore thumb in his hometown. The realignment dust appears to have settied…FOR NOW! Cal, Stanford and SMU to ACC. Aside from the part shares or no shares in SMU’s case, it doesn’t look that inviting for the schools, but this is what college sports are now. The Mountain West announced it talked to Oregon State a...
On tonight’s show, Joe begins with why he did not have a show on Tuesday. It was a “personal day” and reminds everyone don’t be afraid of routine checkups and other important medical tests that have to be done as you get older. Then we get to the main portion of the show with “Waiver Day” today as we found out where the Angels’ waived players went. Three players ended up with Cleveland, one in Cincinnati, and one in Seattle. Joe thinks an August 15 trade date would make things more interesting a...

On the show tonight: Joe beings with some breaking news. WWE star Bray Wyatt (real name Windham Rotunda) pass away earlier on Thursday at 36 years old. Joe hasn’t watched wrestling in years, but it caught his eye knowing someone that young passed away. Then go mentions more breaking news, or is it tearing? Shohei Ohtani is out as a pitcher for the rest of the year and might be done completely for the year. Seems like every move the Angels made since going all in to get into the playoffs have bac...
On the Tuesday show: James Hardin fined 100k for shooting his mouth Phils/Giants at CBP Wander Franco on administrative Leave A's hire construction firm for Vegas stadium White Sox fire 2 members of front office; potential move to Nashville? Texas 30-3 anniversary 2007 East Coast earthquake anniversay Stupid S--- I Saw: Dog Eats Passport Notre Dame to Big Ten?
On the audio only episode: Joe begins the show as “The Curmudgeon”. He saw a story this week that a state representative wants to turn the official work week into a 32-hour week from 40. That’s great, but there is this thing called corporate greed. Joe watched the Phillies game tonight. Neat seeing the Phillies with the Media Little League team’s parents while their game was going on. Shame Media lost today and then the Phillies lost on Sunday Night Baseball in the Little League Classic. Joe wat...
On tonight’s show: Joe begins the show with some updates on the Wander Franco investigation. He’s being investigated in both Florida and the Dominican Republic. One tweet suggests he will never play in MLB again. The NFL is looking into the XFL kickoff rules to curb concussions. Injuries are down with their XFL rules. Andre Duke joins me, and we talk about the Eagles and also the James Hardin situation, and an interesting take on Joel Embiid. I’m back to being solo, and the NBA released their se...
On tonight’s episode: Messi Mania hit Philly (well, Chester) and the Union laid an egg tonight losing 4-1 at Subaru Park. Messi did bring out the media and security for what was the biggest game in Subaru Park and Philadelphia Union history. Blindsided by a fake story? Michael Oher is suing his adopted parents or conservators for money he never received from “The Blind Side” movie. Things just don’t look right to Joe, and though Oher may have some points here, it seems like a scammer just trying...
On the 300th episode: First some odds and ends to begin. Bleacher Brothers and Tony Bruno show gear is available @ bleacherbrothers.com. Also, September set of shows are created on No Filter and the show for August 29 has been cancelled. There will also be two Friday shows on 9/15 & 9/22. Eagles talk is tabled to Tuesday, but my dad calls Saturday night asking me about something he saw about the uniforms. Wander Franco might have new issues. He didn’t play on Sunday, but was it a regular day...
On tonight’s show: Phillies win 3 of 4 against Washington, and like I said about the KC series, that should have been a sweep, but winning 2 out of 3 and 3 out of 4 consistently will get you to the playoffs. Also, Michael Lorenzen threw a no hitter on Wednesday night, and in a crazy stat, all four pitchers from his high school that make MLB now have no hitters on their resumes. Conference realignment: Stanford and Cal is getting interest from the ACC, but they are also getting interest from the ...
Note: I did have some technical difficulties with this episode, but I think I got all the dead air edited out. On tonight’s show, Joe begins with the suspension of Kevin Brown, who is the play-by-play announcer for the Baltimore Orioles. What did he get suspended for? Doing his job and telling a story about how the Orioles lost all the time in Tampa the last five years or so, but had a chance to, and they did, have a winning record in Tampa. Apparently the outrage got to the Angelos family, as B...
Reposted 8/10 Apparently, I’m talking the White Sox today along with the Phillies, who knew? On this episode: •Phillies win 2 of 3 over Kansas City; end week 5-24 •The Trea Turner “pandering” •White Sox/Guardians brawl •Former CWS pitcher: no culture, no rules on South Side Follow Joe on Twitter, Instagram & Threads @JoeQuills, and also check out the show’s Twitter handle @PhillyGuySpeaks. NoFilter shows are Tuesday and Thursday at 9:15 pm ET this week, and a special Sunday episode at 8 pm. ...
Joe begins the Thursday show with some Phillies talk. Phillies won 3 of 4 in Miami, but the one loss still left a bitter taste in everyone’s mouths after blowing a 5-0 lead on Wednesday night. Joe equated that to being in customer service, and having a ton of nice people all day, and that one mean person ruins your good mood or your day. Joe then mentioned the college realignment news, including the Big Ten potentially adding Oregon and Washington, and Arizona on the cusp of moving to the Big 12...
On the Tuesday No Filter show: First, Joe talks about trash talking again. The Pittsburgh Pirates tried hard to bring back the Pittsburgh/Philly rivalry. They only have one leg to stand on, not the three that I saw from PNC Park this weekend. Joe even had an Atlanta Braves fan in Pittsburgh talking crap about his Braves. MLB trade deadline passed, and Joe was onto something with Michael Lorenzen coming to the Phillies. Joe likes that trade for the fact that he could be used more than a pitcher i...
On the Sunday night/Monday morning pod episode: •The Kelly Greens are back, but Joe thinks the Eagles went with the wrong ones •Phillies lose 2 of 3 to Pittsburgh after the karma train hit the Phillies on Sunday after pulling Cristopher Sanchez •MLB trade deadline is Tuesday August 1. Scherzer is now a Ragner, and a bunch of other trades since Thursday night •We have an Angel Hernandez sighting in Charlotte. It wasn’t good. •Don Geronimo was fired for his misogynistic Barbie comments at Commande...
Joe’s back after messing up on Tuesday night. Joe begins with what happened and explained how most days he’s among the top 2% (okay, maybe top 4%) of Americans in terms of intelligence, but Tuesday, he was in the bottom 98%, as he talked for 90 minutes and never started the stream (or so he thinks). Everyone screws up sometime! The video doesn’t play, but yes, Joe is an a-----e! Colorado is leaving the Pac-12 for the Big 12, and they won’t have to pay an exit fee because the TV deal for the Pac-...
